Thank goodness they're going. 2 of the most annoying contestants ever.
Almost on par with that woman who argued with Richard about the answer she gave, regarding Bristol train station?

We have a science round that isn't the periodic table and then they spoil it by giving clues as well as the missing letters.

It's almost as if they think it's science so we mustn't make it too difficult - they obviously didn't use that criteria for the film round earlier when I had only a vague recollection of having heard of the film franchise so it was guess random actors.

Emily looks like Amy from The Big Bang Theory
I thought the same. A pity she was only 10% as intelligent.

The science round was spoiled somewhat by giving us half the letters.

As for the "Expendables", I've never seen any of those but it's fairly easy to guess "action stars"...where Ben Stiller and George Clooney are NOT candidates...sigh.

Only if you know the films are about "action stars". After a few correct goes it became obvious roughly what the films were about but before that I was baffled - my first thought was super heroes.

George Clooney has done action roles such as "The Peacemaker" so not that bad a guess and anyway not all the actors will have been action figures.

Can't believe Great Gable was pointless, it was the first one I thought of and dismissed it as too obvious.

That'll teach me not to put the kettle on between rounds - I try to skip as much of the chit chat as possible.
